And how did it go?
So... I mean, 1911s are just...
fucking love them i there you can't say enough good things about them and like you get a company that makes shitty 1911s and they're really shitty like my para p14 or p15 whatever the fuck it's a double stack 45 uh the thing sucks like it's a pretty gun but it's a piece of shit it jams all the fucking time um but you get a good 1911 like
I'd say Rock Island Armory or you're spending $1,000.
That's a good 1911.
Mm-hmm.
I would... One of the...
I don't know if he did this on purpose or not, but one of the range officers and then later one of their lead instructors at my range.
This is very early on when I just got back from Japan.
I was just shooting a 1911, same 1911, the Para.
I wanted to shoot 45, so I took that down there.
It's the only one I had.
And I was printing groups at seven yards.
It was...
1911's all day, man.
They're so fucking accurate.
Anyway, he comes by and he sees me and he comments that I'm the first person he's seen in a long time that shoots a 1911 properly.
And I was like, what do you mean?
And he commented about how my firing thumb doesn't rest directly on the 1911 safety.
